THE BAND: THE CAPITAL ALBUMS 1968-1977 IS THE COMPLETE 8 ALBUM COLLECTION ("MUSIC FROM THE BIG PINK," "THE BAND," "STAGE FRIGHT," "CAHOOTS," "ROCK OF AGES," "NOONDOG MATINEE," "NORTHERN LIGHTS -SOUTHERN CROSS," AND "ISLANDS.") RECORDED UNDER THE CAPITAL LABEL BETWEEN 1968 AND 1977. THE "BAND", MORE THAN ANY OTHER GROUP, PUT ROCK AND ROLL BACK IN TOUCH WITH IT'S ROOTS. WITH THEIR AGELESS SONGS AND SOLID GRASP OF MUSICAL IDIOMS, THE BAND REACHED ACROSS THE DECADES, MAKING CONNECTIONS FOR A GENERATION THAT WAS, AS AN ERA OF VIOLENT CULTURAL SCHISMS WOUND DOWN, IN DESPERATE SEARCH FOR THEM. THEY PROJECTED A SENSE OF COMMUNITY IN THE TURBULENT LATE '60S AND EARLY '70S, A TIME WHEN THE FABRIC OF COMMUNITY IN AMERICA WAS FRAYING. GUITARIST ROBBIE ROBERTSON DREW FROM HISTORY IN HIS EVOCATIVE, CINEMATIC STORY-SONGS, AND THE VOCAL TRIUMVIRATE OF BASSIST RICK DANKO, DRUMMER LEVON HELM AND KEYBOARDIST RICHARD MANUAL JOINED IN RUSTIC HARMONY AND TRADED LINES IN RICH, CONVERSATIONAL EXCHANGES. MULTI-INSTRUMENTALIST GARTH HUDSON PROVIDED MUSICAL COLORATION IN PERIOD STYLES THAT EVOKED EVERYTHING FROM RURAL CARNIVALS OF THE EARLY 20TH CENTURY TO ROCK AND ROLL REVUES OF THE 50'S.
